In expressing left wing views, as I have been
doing... does that make me "listing" to port??

Me: Is there a law that applies to this?
Government: Yes, you have to go get stickers. I
hear the DNR office is open today.
Me: But I already have them!
Government: Well give us a few months to think about it.
I cant really see this happening in the USA or
Canada on a routine basis. Apparently the last
couple presidents of Mexico were sailors and
wanted people to come to Mexico by boat.
Apparently not so much for the new guy.

I agree Joe.
That's the point I tried to make about the
difference in skill levels between U.S./Canada
vs. Mexico government employees. I see this
action and think they're still in their
apprenticing stage. Heavy handed and awkward,
yes. Different in principle to our agencies, no.
If this same Mexican action happened to a dozen
people/boats each month and though many marinas
we wouldn't even hear about it... amateurs!
Give them a few years and I expect they will
become almost as skilled as our agencies :)

If the IRS is after you, you can prove you
didnt do it and get your boat back. Apparently
the Mexican IRS has *no f-ing idea* how to undo
the mess they made. You can prove you have the
correct papers all day long and they wont let
you go. Also note the penalty under Mexican law
for not having the papers is you have 10 days to go get them.

From a cynic's perspective, let me express the
opinion that Canadian & American tax collection
people do similar things to people ALL THE TIME.
I.E.: the withholding of funds or seizure of
property until you comply. In the same heavy
handed way that the Mexicans have done. The big
difference between to the two (and indicates a
higher level of skill) is that "our" agencies target individuals, not groups.
Didn't we just have a conversation with Steve about this?
Damn! Now I'm on somebody's list.
